I Will Praise You in this Storm

I was sure by now that You would have reached down
And wiped my tears away;
Stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say "Amen", and it's still raining...
As the thunder rolls,
I barely hear Your whisper through the rain,"I'm with you."
And as Your mercy falls,
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives and takes away.
I'll praise You in this storm, and I will lift my hands -
For You are who You are, no matter where I am.
Every tear I've cried, You hold in Your hand.
You never left my side...
And though my heart is torn, I will praise You in this storm.
I remember when I stumbled in the wind.
You heard my cry, You raised me up again.
My strength is almost gone...
How can I carry on if I can't find You?
As the thunder rolls,
I barely hear You whisper through the rain, "I'm with you."
And as Your mercy falls,
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives and takes away.
I lift my eyes unto the hills.
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord - The Maker of Heaven and Earth.
I'll praise You in this storm, and I will lift my hands-
For You are who You are, no matter where I am.
Every tear I've cried, You hold in your hand.
You never left my side...
And though my heart is torn, I will praise You in this storm....
Praise You in this Storm - Casting Crowns
